2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted March 20, 2011 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Dear all It's the annual call for help to run the Barmill RR on 9th April. Marshalls, drivers etc required from about 9.15am to 1pm. If you've ever fancied driving a lead car, being a marshall, finish line judge etc then please post here if you can help. Club members can ride once we have the required number of marshalls (4 minimum) and a lead car (1 minimum but an extra for another group would be good) Thanks See copy of post I put on Braveheart below Guys Get your shades and sunscreen out, it's the Barmill TLI where the temp is never below 70 degrees. Anyway, I have to change the date of the race this year and have found a slot in the calendar that doesn't clash with road races and seems to fill a hole. Sat 9th April 10am, Barmill Community Hall APR style Road Race, 56 miles £7 members or £10 on the day. I will apply for field of 80 riders. First come, first serve. email me at [email protected].

Life Members chung Posted March 20, 2011 Life Members Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Paul, Won't be able to help out with this one as away on holiday. Have a good one and good luck to all the Joansins who will be racing. Chung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions Ramsay Posted March 20, 2011 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 Sorry Paul, I've got a wedding that day, so can't ride or marshal! It should mean that Elaine's cousin should have a good day for her wedding though, as it's always sunny at the Barmill APR!

DavieB Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Paul, I am assuming that this is a good place for those who have not raced before to "give it a go" without taking up a valuable place at the expense of more seasoned racers?? If so I would like to ride but if you are pushed for volunteers am also happy to marshall. Cheers, Davie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions David Thomson Posted March 21, 2011 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I am happy to help out but if there is the option to ride I'd go for that. Cheers David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2023 Subscriptions P McDonald Posted March 25, 2011 Author 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Guys Thanks for all the replies. Here is where I am at, Marshalls (a big thank you). Would any of you like to volunteer for lead car - this is one position I need to fill as per risk assessment. Marco Van W Mike F Richard (Kenny - you need to give this man a lift if you want to ride!) Ian McG Jim D Places reserved for riders (as you know contingent on all marshalls being able to attend) Darryl Kenny Davie B Dave T Billy Mac Charlie I have 69 entries in 4 days including the 6 riders listed above which is excellent. Great to see so many club members wanting to ride - please be prepared to undertake duties on the day such as organising grub, finish line judges, sign on duties, admin at sign on, cash collection etc. I will pester you all at Flanders for allocated duties. I will take care of hall, start sheet, communications, groupings etc. I have listed the 69 entries to date on Braveheart if you want to see the opposition and rough groupings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Key items are everyone must fill out entry form with emergency contact details (many will have one with them) and must sign start sheet. Dave T & Kenny C – Bring Richard for marshall duties! Then administration of sign on sheet and distribution of race numbers. MARSHALLS Jim D – Lead car Mike F – Corner 1 Mark O – Corner 2 Greg B – Corner 3 Richard M – Corner 4 Ian McG and Seb – Spare corner marshalls who can ride round and relieve those on corners to go for a spin of their own.
